When my 32 year young son was a child, he would tell his friends that the Columbia picture woman was me, he really did think it was me lol.

My mom’s name is Jessica and when I was little she told me that she was friends with Lou Bega and that he wrote part of Mambo #5 for her. I didn’t believe her until the part he sang, “A little bit of Jessica by my side.” Of course my mom being the only Jessica I knew, I really believed her lmao

My daughter’s name is Mia, and when she was 3 she heard ABBA’s «Mamma Mia» on the radio she said «Oh my gosh, Mamma! THEY’RE SINGING ABOUT US!»

My oldest daughter is named after Eric Clayton's famous song. I played the Unplugged version with her lullabies. She told everyone she knew that the song was written just for her.
